                                         Ahsoka's POV -- 1 week later

    It's been a whole week since I've arrived on Shili and my Uncle and my Mother have been teaching me how to properly rule a Planet. Because of this I haven't been able to do any Jedi training. Also, I sense that something is up with Masters Obi-wan, Shaak Ti, and Anakin. This has me confused. Usually if it was Jedi business they'd include me. Yesterday I asked Master Shaak Ti who the three of them were contacting in the Communications Tower and she told me. "My Queen, you shouldn't worry about it. Your Uncle has a lot to teach you right now. It is nothing important." I sighed at her comment.

    Now, here I am. Trying to get some alone time away from everyone and all my problems, but, I feel that my problems are only just getting started. Also, my Uncle has had a pair of Palace Guards stay close to me. They, currently were tailing me. I could sense them and I rolled my eyes and turned to face them and did my Jedi mind trick. "You don't have to follow me anymore." I said to them. "We don't have to follow you anymore." the Guards said and turned around. FINALLY! ALONE TIME! And for me alone time really is........exploring time! Lux and I always got in trouble doing this. We would always explore, you couldn't exactly contain us as kids. And you still can't.

    I ran towards the old part of the castle. The side that contains my nursery, a few other rooms, and, I'm guessing my parents' bedroom. I made it in under five minutes and choose the path to my left this time. I stopped in front of a large dark Oak door and opened it. It seemed to be my parents room. I heard someone shout my name and I quickly entered and shut the door.'Damn, can't a girl get any privacy in her own Palace?!' I thought to myself as I took a look around the room. It was triple the size of mine and the furniture was all covered with white tarps, that looked to have years and I mean years of dust covered on them. I saw bookshelves and walked over to them. I didn't find anything too interesting. I saw that on each side of what seems to be a California King bed, were nightstands. I opened the right one first and I could obviously tell it was my Mothers', it had some jewelry in the first drawer, along with perfume I'm guessing? I opened the second drawer and I saw one single sheet of folded paper. On the top was written, 'To: Daughter, From: Mother. I Love You, Ahsoka.' I opened the paper to see that it was a song. I put it in my pocket, deciding to look at it later.

    I went over to my Fathers' side of the bed and opened the top drawer. It seemed to be full of.........Lightsaber parts. I shut the drawer and opened the second and there was a small black box. There was a note on top of the box. 'To: Daughter, From: Father. I Love You, Ahsoka.' I opened the box and my eyes widened, it was a real sapphire and diamond gold bracelet. I stood up and put the note and the box with the bracelet in my other pocket so I wouldn't ruin the paper in my other one. I bent down and brought out the top drawer of my Fathers' nightstand and set it on the bed, I'm going to take it with me. I looked around the room again and went over to another bookshelf. I looked at this one more closely and I saw two notebooks. I took them both out and placed them on top of the drawer that has the Lightsaber parts in it. I think I've found everything that I was looking for so, I picked up the box and left the room.

    I could sense that Anakin was looking for me still. I could tell that he was the one who yelled my name earlier. I turned on my Com when I entered the normal part of the Palace, on my way to my room. I called Lux. "Hey, come to my room. I've got something that I think you'd want to see." I told him. "Okay, be there in four." Lux said, through the Com. I took the longer way to my room, wanting to avoid Anakin, Obi-wan, and Shaak Ti, so they don't see these Lightsaber parts that I have.

    When I entered my room Lux was sitting on the couch. "So, what is it that you got?" Lux asked. "First, I'm showing you the smaller stuff before we get to the good stuff." I said excitedly. I took out the piece of paper and gave it to Lux and he read it. "Wow, Ahsoka you should sing this! Where did you find this?" Lux asked. "I found all this stuff in my birth parents' room. And I'm not sure of how that song is supposed to go. There doesn't seem to be any instrumental inclination of it. Just the words." I said. "This is the perfect chance to make the instrumental part!" Lux said, damn I forgot how excited he can get when it comes to the two of us creating a new song. "Anyway, look at what else I found." I pulled out the small black box with the bracelet and showed him. "Ahsoka, that is beautiful. Your Father was going to give this to you? Wow." Lux said. "And these are the crowning jewels that I found! The real reason that I asked you to come here!" I said excitedly, dumping the contents of the box of Lightsaber parts on the table, making a loud tumbling noise.

    "Oh my! Holy crap! Are you sure you should be messing with this stuff? It seems dark." Lux said. "That's because they are. You know how much practice I can get with these! If I get good enough, I can probably take an enemies Lightsaber apart before they even get a swing in!" I said, excitedly. "Ahsoka, I'm really not sure if you should be messing with these." Lux said, I could tell that he was a little worried about me messing with these. Before I could speak, I felt my lunch start coming up and I rushed to the bathroom. I emptied the contents of my stomach, flushed, and sat on the floor in front of the toilet. "Ahsoka!" Lux said. "Get Mom!" I said to him, worried. I hope I'm not sick. I've just never been sick and I hope that even if I am sick, that it's nothing too serious. I inwardly sighed as my stomach lurched again and I ended up dry heaving over the toilet. 'Great.' I thought to myself.

[ So I had to fast forward to a week later because I was stuck again :/ Also I listened to some music and got the idea for this chapter. Oh, and that's the bracelet that Ahsoka's birth father was going to give her. Okay, so I also want to see who thinks they know what's really wrong with Ahsoka, you can leave a comment, but, PM me what you think is wrong with her. I won't tell you if you're right tho. May the Force be with you all =) ]
